The narcissist’s intention is purely about themselves. What they pursue is the narcissistic drug of choice, what we call the narcissistic supply. That is the only thing they are after.
What really drives a narcissist? Caroline Strawson, best-selling author and trauma therapist, peels back the layers of narcissistic behavior in this eye-opening episode. She dives into the heart of narcissistic abuse, revealing that the hurtful actions of narcissists are all about their own needs. They crave what’s known as 'narcissistic supply', and their actions are not a reflection of your worth or values.
Caroline explains how the pain you feel is just a byproduct of their relentless pursuit of this 'supply'. Narcissistic aggression and manipulation often stem from their own unresolved wounds, manifesting in behaviors that are deeply damaging to those around them. But here’s the twist: understanding this can be a powerful step towards your own healing. This episode is packed with practical insights on recognizing when a narcissist is manipulating you and how to reclaim your power.
Caroline’s approach integrates tools like Internal Family Systems, Brainspotting, and Somatic Experiencing to help you move from post-traumatic stress to post-traumatic growth. She emphasizes that while you can't change the narcissist, you can change how you respond and heal from the trauma they’ve caused. If you’ve ever felt trapped in a narcissistic relationship, this episode offers a roadmap to understanding their true intentions and reclaiming your life.
Caroline’s empathetic and knowledgeable guidance makes this a must-listen for anyone looking to break free from the cycle of narcissistic abuse.
